    And to check if its been stolen. And measure the level as well to gauge your usage, record it and put it into a spreadsheet.

    Sure, what else would you be doing

    I know the question is old but for anyone searching this question...

    I've had one for a while now.
    it took a bit of "support" to set up. I had to provide dimensions of the tank to the company to get accurate levels. There were many mistakes along the way but got sorted over a couple of months.

    I think its a great idea but it's let down by trying to be a product that I wish it wasn't.
    Essentially it is trying to be a set and forget auto oil deliver and payment platform. I think it's only available as such in the UK where you set up a payment option and avail of group purchase of oil when you are close to running out.
    the idea is oil at a discount, and its automatic.

    For me, I wanted an oil monitor that would allow me to analyse my usage.
    To this end it has massive potential but fails.
    It collects the raw data but I can't access it, and the charts on the website dont really give the right information to be used as an analysis tool.
    I was hoping to be able to fine tune my usage of oil by looking at the data from the monitor but it is too high level.

    It does work very at telling me how much is left in the tank though.
